Hi all
I have a console application that runs every night via a scheduled task,
there is a try-catch block in my Main class, whenever an error is caught it
is written to a log file and then emailed to several people. The
application is run using a domain service account, if the program is
successful it emails this result fine.
The problem is, the catch doesn't seem to perform correctly if the program
fails, all I end up with is an entry in the event-log with almost
meaningless error details.
My only thought was that maybe these errors are occurring in my
multi-threaded calls (there are a few).
Is there any reason why the catch would fail? I'm running out of ideas.
Thanks
Kev

Hi Kev,
Perhaps you don't have permission on the log file and the application is
bombing out before the sending mail portion of the program is sent.

Quite possibly. If you're doing stuff in worker threads you need to
have an exception handler on each worker thread that either logs the
error or communicates the error back to the main thread. If a worker
thread fails due to an exception it won't communicate anything to the
main thread by default, it will simply shut down.

I'm pretty sure that's the problem, how do you catch exceptions from
additional threads?

Permissions is ok as the log file is being written to before-hand.

It is that, I'm now handling my exceptions inside the appropriate threads
and it's working now.

In the same way as usual, just make sure the exception handler runs on
the thread in question...

Love Python's stack-tracing error messages, but hate the way
GUI applications throw the messages away and crash silently?
Here's a module to show Python error messages that would
otherwise be lost in console-less programs. Graphical
applications should not require console windows, but they do
need a workable destination for sys.stderr.

Hi I have a really basic question hopefully some can help me with:
Can you write a (i.e. one) C# project that works from the cmd line and gui?
I seems if i write a GUI app it can't write to console using
System.Console.WriteLine if thge project has its "Output Type" to
"Windows Application".
However I can write to stdio if i set output type to "Console
Application". When I do this I unfortunately get a "console box" as well

Hi there,
I have a very simple console application that I'm trying to handle the
thread exception on, as I understand it there is no Application object
available to a console application, so I can't use this. Instead you need
to use "Thread.GetAppDomain.UnhandledException", this "works" to a certain
extent but from the look if it you merely get added to a chain of event
handlers, and the runtime is still above you, so I can't use this...

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows.
